In a league with fewer fullbacks, Ravens’ Juszczyk continually shows his worth

The NFL’s official website described Kyle Juszczyk’s 10-yard touchdown run in Sunday’s loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers as gravity-defying after he brushed off an attempted tackle by free safety Mike Mitchell, put his left hand in the turf to avoid going to the ground, and dove into the end zone.

The Ravens fullback, who was schooled at Harvard University, preferred a different lesson in physics.

“I always try to be the hammer, not the nail, as my college coach always used to say,” Juszczyk said of his collision with Mitchell. “I tried to kind of bring it to him as he tried to tackle me.”
